For Madison
She wears a cross against her chest
So you can tell who she loves best
If you don't fit in
With your life of sin
If you fail to pass her test
As the holy scriptures said
Your desires can't be fed
With her eyes above
Well she speaks of love
But the rules all rule her head
A young lady in white
She stays in her bed at night
While the rest of us are restless
Wondering why what's right is right
You've had some good times haven't you
But the bliss of ignorance is through
Your heart was on your sleeve
But she couldn't conceive
Of a love she never knew
Maybe she will find a way
To rise from the tenets of yesterday
See you for who you are
'Cause we've come so far
Since we first learned to pray
A young lady in white
She's all that's good and pure and right
While the rest of us are restless
Wondering when we'll win the fight
And why what's right is right
So you can tell who she loves best
If you don't fit in
With your life of sin
If you fail to pass her test
As the holy scriptures said
Your desires can't be fed
With her eyes above
Well she speaks of love
But the rules all rule her head
A young lady in white
She stays in her bed at night
While the rest of us are restless
Wondering why what's right is right
You've had some good times haven't you
But the bliss of ignorance is through
Your heart was on your sleeve
But she couldn't conceive
Of a love she never knew
Maybe she will find a way
To rise from the tenets of yesterday
See you for who you are
'Cause we've come so far
Since we first learned to pray
A young lady in white
She's all that's good and pure and right
While the rest of us are restless
Wondering when we'll win the fight
And why what's right is right
